Formation of heavy bottom water in the Barents Sea
Formation of heavy bottom water through rejection of brine during ide freezing is a regular phenomenon in the Barents Sea, particular on the Novaya Zemlya shelf, but also observed in other shallow localities of the sea. Water with temperature around -1°C and salinity above 34.95 is found moving east...
